About what I expected. A program like that is sort of counter to the typical 
UNIX alike philosophy of lots of little programs. It'd be a huge program! Large 
programs are a low percentage of the Linux platform.

Neat trick: (the tab completion trick) Hit tab twice at an empty prompt in a 
terminal to see just how many executables are on your path at any given time.

pfred1@spot:~$ 
Display all 2897 possibilities? (y or n)

Root has a few more:
root@spot:~# 
Display all 3266 possibilities? (y or n)

Most of those are teeny tiny little programs.

I still like to browse Freshmeat now and again just to see what is out there 
because not everything is always in distribution repositories.

Although installing unpackaged software can often be cumbersome, sometimes it 
is worthwhile.
